    well, let's see if this works:

    click on start (a.k.a. the windows logo button) then on the botton of the menu, there's a search box, which can be used as the good ol' "Run..." in older Windows versions.

    Type in there msconfig.exe, then a window will come up. There'll be a tab that says startup. Click on it and then look for somehing like magnifier.exe and uncheck it. That'll do the thing, I guess.

    In this startup tab, you can uncheck programs that you don't want the computer to run at startup, just in case you need to speed your computer a bit up when you hit the switch.
